| 释义 | eye (once / 8 pages) 1nv 2n 3n An eye is the part of your body that makes it possible for you to see. When your eyes are closed, you can no longer see — until you open them again. Most animals have eyes, and while having two eyes is most common, some spiders have eight. Your eyes are sense organs, and unless you're visually impaired, they enable you to see the world around you. The tiny hole in a needle is also an eye, and when you look at someone, you eye them. To lay eyes on something is to see it for the first time, and when you keep an eye on someone, you observe them carefully.
